• Recommended 7-Way Trailer Wiring Harness for 1995 Chevy C3500 with 5.7L
  For your 1995 Chevy C3500, I recommend your start with the Tekonsha Prodigy P3 brake controller # 90195. This proportional controller will apply your trailer brakes at the same time and with the same intensity as you hit the brake pedal in your truck. It has easy to use presets and has an LCD screen to avoid code deciphering of most other brake controllers. It is completely transferable to another vehicle if you decide to move trucks at some point. If you want a more basic controller,...

• Is There a Locking Ball Mount Rated for Over 10,000 lbs?
  The only B&W Tow & Stow ball mounts we offer that have a towing capacity over 10,000 lbs and fit in a 2" hitch use a pintle hook, like # BWTS10055. There are adjustable ball mounts from other manufacturers that fit in a 2" hitch and can give you the capacity you need. The Andersen EZ Heavy Duty Adjustable Hitch # AM3298 is one of those options as it has a 14,000 lb capacity with the 2-5/16" ball and offers a maximum rise of or drop of 8". I've added links to video reviews of these ball...

• How to Choose the Correct Ball Mount for a 2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited
  In order to choose the correct ball mount for your 2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited and 19’ Airstream Flying Cloud, you will need to do a bit of measuring. For this, you will need to measure from the ground to the top of the inside edge on your receiver tube opening and from the ground to the bottom of the coupler on your trailer while level. The difference between the above two measurements will give you the correct amount of rise/drop you will need to look for in a ball mount. I have...

• Determining Correct Ball Mount or Draw Bar for your Vehicle and Trailer Combination for Level Towing
  To find the correct ball mount you want to measure from the inside top opening of the receiver on your truck to the ground. Then you want to measure the trailer from the bottom of the coupler to the ground when the trailer is level. The difference between those two measurements will give you the proper rise or drop for your application. I've attached an article to assist. If you don't want to use a fixed mount, or if you pull different trailers, you may want to consider an adjustable...

• How To Tow A Trailer Without Measuring for Rise/Drop
  The only true way to determine what ball mount you need is to measure from the ground to the top inside edge of the receiver tube on the vehicle and then subtract the difference from the ground to the bottom of the coupler on the trailer while level. However, if you do not have access to the trailer then the best option for you is an adjustable ball mount as this will not only more than likely allow you to tow your boat trailer level without measuring beforehand but will also accommodate...

• Recommended Hitch Lock and Coupler Lock Incorporating Safety Chains
  I am not aware of any chain lock. We do have some ball mounts like the B&W Tow & Stow 3-Ball Mount - 2" Hitch - 5" Drop, 5-1/2" Rise - 10K - Black # BWTS10048B which when using a locking hitch pin like # 63232 will secure the shank and ball to the hitch receiver. The Curt Channel Style # C45900 will also secure the ball and mount using # C23556. If you want to secure a coupler to the ball you can use # BD580403. If you really want to secure your chains, you can use a cable lock like...

• Will the 1-Ball Platform Fit Into the Curt Channel Style Adjustable Ball Mount
  Scott, I think the 1-Ball Platform for BulletProof Hitches Adjustable Ball Mounts # BPH66RR will be a bit too wide to physically fit into the Channel Style Adjustable Ballmount # C45900. The 1-ball platform is 3" wide, and the channel style ballmount is 3" wide, so the two would be the same size and therefore wouldn't fit together.

• 2 inch Hitch Recommendation for Use with Curt Adjustable Ball Mount # C45900
  To use the Curt Adjustable Ball Mount part # C45900 on your 2015 Subaru Forester you'll need to have a 2 inch trailer hitch installed like the Draw Tite hitch part # 76182 which is a confirmed fit and is our best option. What I really like about this hitch is that it only has the hitch opening visible at the rear of the vehicle and doesn't cost nearly as much as the EcoHitch for your vehicle.

• What Light Weight Adjustable Multi Ball Mounts Are Available For A 2" Receiver?
  The Curt Channel Style Adjustable Ballmount # C45900 weighs approximately 30lbs. That includes the receiver pin and cotter pin. The Rapid Hitch Adjustable, Aluminum Ball Mount Kit # AM3461 is one of our lightest weight adjustable hitches. At only 12lbs the aluminum construction not only makes it light but it will not rust or corrode in salty and wet areas. The Rapid Hitch Trailer Hitch Lock and Adjustment Pin Lock Set # AM3492 will provide you with a locking pin for the height adjustment...

• Recommended Canoe Carrier Compatible with 2014 Heartland Bighorn 5th Wheel Trailer
  For your 2014 Heartland Bighorn Model M3010RE, I recommend the Curt Adjustable Width Trailer Hitch Receiver for RVs # 13703. This will bolt or weld onto your frame and give you 3,500 lbs towing capacity and up to 350 lb tongue weight. Due to the height of your trailer, there really isn't a safe way to carry your canoe or kayak other than to add a trailer. For this application, I recommend the adjustable ball mount # C45900 along with a hitch lock like # 63232. Then use a trailer like...

  The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2" # C13038 is not a fit for your 1996 Ford F-250.

• Recommended Trailer Hitch Receiver, Wiring, And Ball Mount For 1995 Ford E-250
  For your 1995 Ford E250 Van, I recommend the Draw-Tite Ultra Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver Class IV - 2" # 41906. The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2" # 13322 will not fit your vehicle. If you will be towing with this hitch receiver, I recommend the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # 118344.

• Parts Needed to Tow a 3,900 Pound Trailer with a 2016 Buick Enclave with Factory Tow Package
  In addition to a trailer hitch, such as # 75528, for your 2016 Buick Enclave you will also need a trailer wiring harness, ball mount, and ball. These are the basic components needed for towing. It looks like the Enclave already has a trailer wiring harness so that plus the hitch means we need to look at ball mounts and balls. I recommend an adjustable ball mount such as # C45900 because it is height adjustable from 6 inches drop to 5-1/4 inch rise and it has both a 2 inch and 2-5/16 inch...

• Can The Lock N Roll Vehicle Side Hitch # 336VS503 Fit a Curt Adjustable Ball Mount # C45900?
  Yes, you can install the Lock N Roll Articulating Hitch # 336VS503 on the Curt Channel Style Adjustable Ballmount # C45900. The holes on the Lock N Roll are 5/8" diameter and spaced every 2" on center. This will fit the Curt having the same 5/8" diameter holes spaced every 1" on center. This will give you more adjustments than the Lock N Roll 3-Position # 336TS505 or 5-Position # 336TS515 receivers.

• Will Curt Lock Set Fit Curt Adjustable 2-Ball Mount for 2" and 2-1/2" Hitches
  Yes, the Curt Lock Set # C23556 will work with both the # C45900 and # C45902 meaning the 2-1/2" hitch won't be a problem. The pair of locks comes keyed alike but there is no option to match the keys between the sets of locks.

• Will InfiniteRule Hitch Lock Fit Curt Channel Style Adjustable Ballmount
  I'm not exactly sure which Curt you're talking about, but I assume it is one like the # C45900 with the 3" wide channel. A 3-7/8" span on the # 34061074-D should fit but just barely, it will be tight. A better option would be the Andersen Rapid Hitch # AM3492 or Curt # C23556. The Curt lock has a 4-1/4" span to fit that channel and comes with a locking hitch pin with a 3-1/4" span as well for added security. The Andersen also has a 4-1/4" span for the locking pin and comes with a locking...

• Solution for Hitch Step for Truck With B&W Adjustable Ball Mount
  A hitch step like the Curt # C45909 is designed to fit inside of a channel. The design of a B&W ball mount like the # BWTS20049B would require a step that fit around the outside. Unfortunately, there are no options to add a step to the B&W. However, you could use a step like the Gen-Y # GY79VR. The only thing this would lack is the ability to adjust the height. The only other option would be to switch ball mounts completely and use one like the # C45900 which would allow you to use the...
